*** Beau & Bella are in a foster home. ***Beau: brown tabby, short hair, neutered male, born approx. 3/20/23, #18296Bella: taupe/brown Siamese mix, short hair, sp. female, born approx. 3/20/23, #18299Cats: *BONDED PAIR*, ok with othersDogs: maybeChildren: older kids bestBACKGROUND: Beau and Bella lost their home when their guardian was no longer able to care for them. They are hoping to find a new family to give them the love and security they crave!PERSONALITY: Beau and Bella like some time to settle in, and then they will show their abundance of thanks with cuddles, purrs, and kneading on your lap. They are incredibly affectionate and sweet and they love to play! They are particularly fond of mice and wand toys and will follow you around the house like puppies.---Beau is such an endearing boy. He is playful, curious, and a total cuddler. He is quick to purr and will follow you around or sit calmly on your lap. He comes running and will jump for you to scoop him up and hold him. He has little sweet chirpy vocalizations. He loves to “bathe” you with his rough tongue!---Bella has beautiful dark brown point colorations and is one of the sweetest kitties you’ll ever meet! She is a little bit reserved to start when she is unsure of new circumstances, but once she becomes comfortable then her confidence rises and she loves to jump up and cuddle up on your lap. She takes a back seat to Beau and can be independent in play, yet she is very smart: she’s even learned how to open doors!---Beau and Bella have never been apart and love each other. They MUST be adopted together.COMPATIBILITY: Beau is very social with other kitties; Bella isn’t really interested on expanding her friend circle beyond her brother though can co-exist with other friendly cats. They met some dogs when they were kittens and thus might do well with cat-friendly canines if they are given a slow and proper introduction. Older children who can be calm are welcome.

It will be important for their new family to provide them with stability and lots of love to show them they are in their forever home. Fun, cuddly, and gorgeous, Beau and Bella are pretty special… will they be YOUR special kitties?

*** Hamster, Kimmy & Howie are in a foster home. ***Hamster: black & white bicolor, med. hair, spayed female, born approx. 1/31/24, #18980Kimmy: brown tabby & white, short hair, spayed female, born approx. 1/31/24, #18981 Howie: black & white bicolor, short hair, neutered male, born approx. 1/31/24, #18983Cats: need a sibling or new kitty friendDogs: unknown Children: love gentle kids When a Good Samaritan was helping with a hoarding situation, she took in a heavily pregnant cat who soon gave birth to five adorable kittens. Their benefactor reached out to The Rescue House and the family moved into foster care. Now they are ready to find loving homes!They like to frolic and romp and tussle with each other and you seldom see one kitten scamper by without another in hot pursuit! They are very social and comfortable with people of all ages.---Hamster likes to walk around showing off her luxurious coat and that oh-so-fluffy tail… she’s beautiful and she knows it! This curious love bug will quickly win your heart with her soft purr and desire to cuddle right up to her people for some pets and scritches and quite possibly a nap. Her slightly more dignified nickname is “Beauty”… for she is, inside and out.---Kimmy is a great reading and snuggling partner who loves when you dote on her. This lovely lass enjoys any kind of frisky fun, especially when she can showcase her superb climbing skills! (Her nose blaze is divided half brown and half white.)---Howie is the big guy and he’s outgoing, confident, and a spirited sweetheart. His curiosity leads him into plenty of inquisitive adventures, so you’ll find him almost anywhere if he’s not lounging in his fleece hammock. Howie will go after any toy (wand, laser, sibling) with unadulterated glee!They each must have a sibling (ideal!) or another welcoming kitty playmate in their new home. They are great with respectful children. They haven’t met any dogs, but if introduced carefully we think they have the potential to do well with a cat-friendly canine.Which of these cuties will win your heart? It’s going to be hard to choose!

*** Dotty is at The Cat Cafe in downtown San Diego. ***Black & white tuxedo, medium hair, spayed female, born approx. 4/15/23, #18829Cats: enjoys Dogs: ignores Children: calm quiet older kids Dotty and her siblings were living in the yard of a woman in Holtville who threatened to shoot and kill them; she did shoot another cat that was there. A local rescuer was able to get the family out to safety and they later came to The Rescue House. Dotty is a busy young lady! She gets very focused on her daily activities: playing hallway soccer, tossing toy mice, chasing rogue bugs that sneak in, scaling cat trees, keeping an eye on what you’re doing on the other side of that door… she’s happy and bouncy and agile and curious, darting around with quick purposeful movements. She’ll pause to lounge on the top perch of a cat tree where she can observe her surroundings, but it isn’t until evening when Dotty will really settle. The work day is done and it’s time for more leisurely pursuits like getting pets and rubs through her soft pretty fur while you watch TV together. Dotty also loves to lie down in bed and sleep next to you. She can give you gentle love-nibbles from time to time when you’re petting her to show that she’s happy. Dotty does best with people she specifically knows, appreciating an introductory period, and the more time you spend with her the closer you will become.Dotty enjoys the company of other cats and will head-bump them and then rub against their bodies. She’d best like to have a feline friend and has never been alone, though would likely be okay as a solo cat so long as she gets plenty of enrichment with wand toys. She ignores her foster’s dogs. Dotty can startle with fast movements and loud noises, so we recommend an overall calmer home with adults or with cat-savvy older children.Dotty is a darling! Will she be your beloved companion?

*** Daisy & Coco are at our Petsmart Aero adoption center. ***Daisy: orange/white/black calico, short hair, spayed female, born approx. 6/1/24, #19337Coco: brown/black tabby, short hair, spayed female, born approx. 6/1/24, #19339Cats: yep! Best togetherDogs: get alongChildren: get alongBACKGROUND: These darlings and their mom were rescued from an attic in LA County. No longer scared or malnourished, these healthy, happy kitties are ready to be spoiled in their forever homes!PERSONALITY: A bit on the reserved side due to their difficult beginning, these balls of fluff are lots of fun! --- Daisy is famous for her sweet personality! This curious girl is always ready to explore. Purring her favorite tunes, she’ll cheerfully approach you, especially during mealtimes. After waking up from a cat nap, she’ll allow gentle snuggles. Then she’s off to bat around some pom poms!--- Coco is our demure princess! Her beloved mushroom-shaped scratching post doubles as a throne. Still learning to trust gentle humans, Coco is a tad bashful and likes to take things slow. We are so proud of all the progress she’s made— from initially hiding in a closet to zooming all over the place as she plays. She’d appreciate a patient family who will help her blossom into a confident queen! COMPATIBILITY: Daisy and Coco would be best adopted together if possible. Our duo has spent several months in a household with other felines, a dog and young children without issue. They can mingle with them all!Warning: Cuteness-overload! How can you resist these kitties? You don’t— Apply now!
